Preparations are in full swing for the pinnacle event in the British agricultural calendar, the Royal Welsh Show, which takes place from Monday 22nd – Thursday 25th July.
Each year, the four-day event attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to the heart of Mid-Wales to come together and celebrate the very best of Welsh and British agriculture.
Along with the fantastic livestock and equine competitions, the Royal Welsh Show provides something to interest everyone with a wide range of countryside activities, sports, shopping, food and drink and a 12-hour programme of exciting entertainment and displays and the launch of our new Horticultural Village.

This charming and humorous display is sure to entertain and captivate audiences of all ages.
